Database Manager on February 9th, 2011:
Identified through online information from Peter Gonciarz. -- The original organ at St. John Gualbert RC Church in Cheektowaga NY originally boasted a Kilgen builder's plate. It was originally a 3 manual, 17 rank organ with mostly stops at unison pitch, a couple 4' stops, and a 16' Open Wood, and Bourdon. The organ was modified in the 1980s and heavily rebuilt in 2009.
